CHEX-DT-2 (channel 22) is a television station licensed to Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, serving the Regional Municipality of Durham as part of the Global Television Network. It is owned and operated by network parent Corus Entertainment, and maintains studios on Simcoe Street (just north of King Street) in Downtown Oshawa and a transmitter on Enfield Road in Clarington.
CHEX-TV-2 was originally a CBC Television affiliate until August 31, 2015, when it became an affiliate of CTV.[2] On August 14, 2018, it was announced that CHEX-TV-2's affiliation agreement with CTV would expire on August 27;[citation needed] the station subsequently became a Global owned-and-operated station known as Global Durham as of September 6.[3]
Although operating as a separate station from Peterborough sister station CHEX-DT, it retains the CHEX-DT-2 callsign used when the station operated as a rebroadcaster of CHEX.
